Phenotypes associated with the disease Joubert syndrome 27 (OMIM:617120):
- Axial hypotonia (HP:0008936): Muscular hypotonia (abnormally low muscle tone) affecting the musculature of the trunk. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Dilatation of the renal pelvis (HP:0010946): The presence of dilatation of the renal pelvis. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Gait ataxia (HP:0002066): A type of ataxia characterized by the impairment of the ability to coordinate the movements required for normal walking. Gait ataxia is characteirzed by a wide-based staggering gait with a tendency to fall. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Global developmental delay (HP:0001263): A delay in the achievement of motor or mental milestones in the domains of development of a child, including motor skills, speech and language, cognitive skills, and social and emotional skills. This term should only be used to describe children younger than five years of age. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Hypotonia (HP:0001252): Hypotonia is an abnormally low muscle tone (the amount of tension or resistance to movement in a muscle). Even when relaxed, muscles have a continuous and passive partial contraction which provides some resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia thus manifests as diminished resistance to passive stretching. Hypotonia is not the same as muscle weakness, although the two conditions can co-exist. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Ataxia (HP:0001251): Ataxia refers to impaired coordination of voluntary muscle movement. Cerebellar ataxia refers to ataxia due to dysfunction of the cerebellum. This causes a variety of elementary neurological deficits including asynergy (lack of coordination between muscles, limbs and joints), dysmetria (lack of ability to judge distances that can lead to under- or overshoot in grasping movements), and dysdiadochokinesia (inability to perform rapid movements requiring antagonizing muscle groups to be switched on and off repeatedly). Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Infantile onset (HP:0003593): Onset of signs or symptoms of disease between 28 days to one year of life. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Polydactyly (HP:0010442): A congenital anomaly characterized by the presence of supernumerary fingers or toes. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 0/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Oculomotor apraxia (HP:0000657): Ocular motor apraxia is a deficiency in voluntary, horizontal, lateral, fast eye movements (saccades) with retention of slow pursuit movements. The inability to follow objects visually is often compensated by head movements. There may be decreased smooth pursuit, and cancelation of the vestibulo-ocular reflex. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Autosomal recessive inheritance (HP:0000007): A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in individuals with two pathogenic alleles, either homozygotes (two copies of the same mutant allele) or compound heterozygotes (whereby each copy of a gene has a distinct mutant allele). Evidence: PCS. (PMID:24886560)
- Esodeviation (HP:0020045): A manifest or latent ocular deviation in which one or both eyes tends to deviate nasally. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Molar tooth sign on MRI (HP:0002419): An abnormal appearance of the midbrain in axial magnetic resonance imaging in which the elongated superior cerebellar peduncles give the midbrain an appearance reminiscent of a molar or wisdom tooth. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Frontal bossing (HP:0002007): Bilateral bulging of the lateral frontal bone prominences with relative sparing of the midline. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Retinopathy (HP:0000488): Any noninflammatory disease of the retina. This nonspecific term is retained here because of its wide use in the literature, but if possible new annotations should indicate the precise type of retinal abnormality. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Thick lower lip vermilion (HP:0000179): Increased thickness of the lower lip, leading to a prominent appearance of the lower lip. The height of the vermilion of the lower lip in the midline is more than 2 SD above the mean. Alternatively, an apparently increased height of the vermilion of the lower lip in the frontal view (subjective). Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Intellectual disability (HP:0001249): The term intellectual disability or intellectual developmental disorder is used to describe significantly sub-average intellectual and adaptive functioning based on clinical assessment and as measured by individually administered, appropriately normed, standardized and validated tests of intellectual functioning and adaptive behavior, with onset during the developmental period from infancy through adolescence. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 2/2. (PMID:24886560)
- Triangular face (HP:0000325): Facial contour, as viewed from the front, triangular in shape, with breadth at the temples and tapering to a narrow chin. Evidence: PCS. Frequency: 1/2. (PMID:24886560)
